Free Tier Value

FTV score
Est. value $4.00 / month
Credit card Not required
Feature parity 90%

This free tier is a capped but genuinely usable monthly allowance: 200 screenshots and 20 requests per minute, with most of the same core features as the paid plans. Compared with the cheapest paid Starter plan at $19/month, it delivers about 10% of the monthly screenshot volume and keeps the no-credit-card, forever-free entry point, so a fair buyer-side estimate is about $4/month.

  • 200 screenshots per month.
  • 20 requests per minute.
  • PNG, JPEG, WebP, PDF, and more output formats.
  • Full-page screenshots.
